1 See above, p. 48, n. 1. Possibly we have to suggest mayah in the plural.
* The idea seems to be : Elishah sarva-ammatēna referring possbily to the sont accorded to the deed by the persons mentioned in lines 13-15. Mahasamanta is no doubt the same as Mahäsämanta.
* The idea may be : dāyāda-mandela-kramena.
• The meaning of the passage is not clear. It may suggest that the income of the village had to be used for a sana and karpata, i.e., for food and cloth.
Correctly speaking: gramo=yam keraya-sasanatvena pradattah.
• The idea may be : ell téditarah referring to the persons who are mentioned in lines 17-18 and who may have been witnesses to the deed. Mähà may be & contraction of Mahäsämanta standing for Mahasamanta.
7 The verses in Sanskrit are hopelessly corrupt owing to the want of the writer's knowledge of that language and to the influence of the looal pronunciation. Read yavaddalta bhavid=bhumih sama-chchheda sudobhanal tavad=yuga-sahasrani rudra-lõke cha tishthati il

Read go-sahasra-pradanena bhumi-hartia na budhyati | .. Read bhumis-tasya. The first half of this verse (bahubhiruvasudha datta rajabhih Sagar-adibhil) is carelessly omitted.
11 Road harat harayid=yas-tu manda-buddhistamo-voitab sa baddho värunaih påsais-tiryag-yonishu jāyat! 11 Read Vishnur-Brahma. 13 Bhavatu or bhavishyati is apparently intended. 16. The idea may be pita-putra-kramena. 15 Read nyün-akaharao. ** Road Padmanabhena sasanamuramaiti,
